A Critics View



Trevor Harvey in The Gramophone (October 1958) wasn’t excited by the release of this record. “ I cannot see that a violin and piano recital benefits much, if at all, from Stereo sound. It does not need spread but does need depth. Not that the present sound is shallow- but where is the gain?.......... The monaural version of the record was warmly received when it first appeared, and the playing itself is certainly as beautiful as one could imagine with good balance on the stereo version between violin and piano”.


Record Condition (Play graded throughout)



Prior to playing, the record was cleaned on my Moth Record Cleaning Machine. Playback equipment comprised a Thorens TD160, Linn Basik LVX Arm with Audio Technica AT-95E Cartridge.

The record was examined in normal daylight. There are faint marks on both sides.The sleeve as can be seen in the photographs has some dark staining to the corners. Front top right and bottom right. Rear bottom left, top left and top centre. There is also a rectangular mark top centre where a retailers label must have been. Apart from these stains the cover is relatively clean.

Band 1 Some occasional faint crackle but no signs of wear and no repetitive ticks.
